April 16th

FINALLY!!!!!! it was the day i actually get to leave! I woke up and attended to the usual morning and then i couldn't wait until i could leave! Finally around 2 o'clock, the staff came in with a bag and called me to my room so i can gather my stuff, everyone kept asking if i was going home, and i told them yes, I went to my room and put all my clothes in the bag they gave me. I took my sheets off my bed and placed them outside my room and then went to the front, i looked out of the doors of the unit and saw my grandfather and mother and sister standing there. My mom was signing papers for my dismissal. they had me sit in this chair, that was right by the doors. Luke came up to me and we were talking, he gave me his contact info, but i noticed that he was cold. so before i left i gave him my sweater, he put it on and smiled. i smiled back, and then the staff came and got me, i hugged everyone goodbye and then went out the doors with my stuff, my mother was in tears and she hugged me. I signed some papers, they gave me back my stuff they had taken away, and then they showed us down. I didn't say much because it felt weird not being in the unit. It also felt like i was in there for months. Time goes so slow in there. I got in the car and looked out the window as if this was all new to me, which that is what it felt like. It felt like being on the road, in traffic outside of those four walls was new. My mother new that I was acting different cause she pointed it out. She told me. After i got home I didn't want to be in my room for some reason. I didn't want to be at home. It didn't feel right, I felt like I couldn't face going back to school and seeing justin again. Not yet, I was so scared to return to school. I was so scared to face my problems.
